Google Cloud Router enables you to dynamically exchange routes between your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and on-premises networks by using Border Gateway Protocol (BGP).
Use the Datadog Google Cloud Platform integration to collect metrics from Google Cloud Router.
Setup
Installation
If you haven’t already, set up the Google Cloud Platform integration first. There are no other installation steps.
Log collection
Google Cloud Router logs are collected with Google Cloud Logging and sent to a Dataflow job through a Cloud Pub/Sub topic. If you haven’t already, set up logging with the Datadog Dataflow template.
Once this is done, export your Google Cloud Router logs from Google Cloud Logging to the Pub/Sub topic:
- Go to the Google Cloud Logging page and filter the Google Cloud Router logs.
- Click Create Export and name the sink.
- Choose “Cloud Pub/Sub” as the destination and select the Pub/Sub topic that was created for that purpose. Note: The Pub/Sub topic can be located in a different project.
- Click Create and wait for the confirmation message to show up.
